Path Integrals in Quantum Theories: A Pedagogic First Step
by Robert D. Klauber
Publisher: QuantumFieldTheory.info 2011
Description:
I strongly believe it far easier, and more meaningful, for students to learn QFT first by the canonical quantization method, and once that has been digested, move on to the path integral (many paths) approach. Hopefully, this material will help such students, as well as those who are forced to begin their study of QFT via path integrals.

Quantum Field Theory and Functional Integrals
by Nima Moshayedi - arXiv.org
We describe Feynman's path integral approach to quantum mechanics and quantum field theory from a functional integral point of view, where focus lies in Euclidean field theory. Gaussian measure and the construction of the Wiener measure are covered.

An Introduction into the Feynman Path Integral
by Christian Grosche - arXiv
An introduction into the theory of the Feynman path integral in quantum mechanics. The general formulation in Riemann spaces is given based on the Weyl- ordering prescription, respectively product ordering prescription, in the quantum Hamiltonian.
